- Abstract
This article presents information about the newly registered germplasm line of maize, designated as GEMS-0002. Registration number of this germplasm line is GP-400 and PI number is 634546. This partially inbred germplasm line was released in March 2002 by the Ohio State University's Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center (OARDC) in accordance with the Germplasm Enhancement of Maize (GEM) protocol. Several thousand plants from the GEM FS8A(S):S09 breeding population were grown at the OARDC in 1997 and 441 S1 progenies were produced by self-fertilization of S0 plants. The progenies were planted in single-row plots in the 1998 field nurseries in Iowa and Ohio. Two plants were self-pollinated per row and visual selection for agronomic traits was undertaken at both locations. Performance trials were conducted in 1999 at Limagrain Genetics test-sites near Savoy and Clay City, Illinois, and Worthington, Indiana. It is reported that GEMS-002 is intended as a breeding resource for the improvement and diversification of elite, non-Lancaster SureCrop related inbreds.
